All I can think of when I see that poster is the Pixar short, Lifted.

Larry King is a quote whore.

It's such a horrible pull quote though. And I think it was the only one they used.

The best part about the quote is that it's phrased as though linking "4th kind" with "close encounters" were his own idea.

The most convincing thing about the ads for this movie is Milla Jovovich assuring me that she's not a real doctor.

I'm fairly convinced that most people see her movies simply because she's prone to taking her clothes off in them.

Btw, this has nothing to do with the thread but I don't know where to post this - the buttons above the text box here are solid black until I mouse over them. The color button doesn't bring down any options, making black-text spoilers difficult. Any fix for this?

It's not her body per se, mostly her face and overall... "sex-appeal", i guess.

I'Ve even watched Ultraviolet all the way...

If you click on that area (if you have your mouse over it, the word "Colors" will pop up for you) once, the tag for black text appears and you can simply type whatever you don't want to have spoiled in between the tags. As I'm sure there's no real need for people to be typing in any other colored font besides white (except for spoilers), that has to be why there's only a tag for black font that pops up for you, not that it's difficult to change it to type in,say, green font, although I wouldn't recommend it except for signatures. I'm sure Devin et. al. would prefer it that way.

It doesn't on mine. Here's some pictures:

post window before I mouse over any buttons

post window after I mouse over any buttons

clicking on the Colors button makes a pulldown menu of a tiny black square that does nothing.
